Sgt. Kevin Coelho said that at approximately 2:55 a.m., police received a domestic violence call of a male hitting and possibly choking a female at 142 Buss Avenue.

After responding to the scene, police received a second call that the male suspect had driven to a nearby Safeway at 709 Lincoln Road West and was parked near the gas pumps. The caller advised that the suspect was armed and provided a vehicle description.
